Where did you grow up?
Growing up my family moved every three years, so I have lived in Ohio, Georgia, Kansas, England, and California.
Where did you go to school?
I attended Blue Valley West for a year and three years at Amador Valley High school in California. I went to the University of Kansas for undergrad and the University of Kansas Medical Center for graduate school. Why did you want to become an audiologist?
I accompanied my grandmother, who was a World War II veteran to her appointment to get hearing aids in high school and saw the huge difference it made in her. Suddenly I was able to interact with my grandma, and getting hearing aids gave her access to interact with those around her. That led me down a path of wanting to help others not feel isolated from those around them.
What is your favorite area of audiology?
I really enjoy the processes of fitting hearing aids and working with people on hearing sounds they may not have heard in many years. I also really enjoy tinnitus therapy.
At what office(s) do you work?
I work at Merriam, Lee’s Summit Medical Center, and Broadway.
Now some fun questions! What’s your favorite television show?
Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars. If you could bring back any fashion trend, what would it be?
I am pumped overalls are coming back into fashion! If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you be?
Exploring a European castle with my family.
